Cons

When you think about vacuums, one name usually comes to mind, Dyson. Why? I think it is because they take time to truly design, test, and promote vacuums that provide you with the features, and specifications that gets the job done efficiently and effectively. Let’s check out the Dyson V6 Absolute Cordless Vacuum from Best Buy and see what we find out.

So I am taking everything out of the box, and one of the first things I notice is that the handle assembly is lighter than other competitors models, and felt more natural to hold. Let me share this also, I love that it has a trigger as the power button. What does that mean? Imagine the trigger on a water gun, you pull the trigger, and water comes out. Same with this, but without the water, pull the trigger and it powers up.

Can we talk attachments? There are a lot of them, and the will all come in handy. Dyson is innovative in that it gives you two main rollers, one for carpets, and one for hard surface floors. While this does mean you might have to switch out to finish your vacuuming, it also means you will have the right attachment that will get the work done.

Check out some of the Product Specs below:

Dyson Fluffy: A soft roller cleaner head engineered to suck up both large dirt and fine dust simultaneously on hard floors. Powerful cleaning without scratching.

75% more brush power: A second cleaner head features a direct-drive motor that creates 75% more brush bar power than DC59 Animal to better agitate carpet pile and tackle ground-in spills and stains.

2 Tier Radial™ Cyclone Technology: Flings dust out of the air and into the bin, separating out even the most microscopic particles.

So while testing the unit both on hard floors in the kitchen, and on carpet in the living room and the stairs, what did I find out? That it works quite well. I loved being able to take off the long extension and just use the carpet roller on the stairs. How did it go? with normal suction it worked quite fine, and I thought I would try to see how the vacuum would work with the max button. It works like a charm, I was able to do the steps to upstairs, and being able to do the carpet on the riser part of the step was so refreshing, and easy to do with this vacuum.

So easy to use, pull the trigger and go!

Cleaning Stairs is so much easier.

The drawback to using the Max feature is that it will deplete the battery at a faster rate. Did I think I needed to use the max feature that much? No. I found that with normal suction power it worked quite well.

My overall impression? I like it. The Dyson V6 Absolute is lighter than other competitors models, and it works better and provides better suction. Drawbacks, only 20 minutes of power on average. So you have to keep moving, and be selective to what you do. Definitely a vacuum to check out, and a strong competitor to providing the right level to your cleaning needs. ~Tom
